Hate to agree, but if all this PC will be is a \'net PC, then a celeron is just fine.

the celeron gets a bad rap for it\'s mediocre performance compared to a full fledged pentium.  It\'s basically neutered.

Which for an internet and email machine is more than enough.  It\'s when you try to play games or anything that needs a lot of processor that you really notice the difference.

Congrats on your new PC :)

your celeron is perfectly fine for what you need it for.  It is if you wanted to do gaming or other extensive media work where you would run into problems.

Not a single thing wrong with the celeron. It\'s just not a gaming CPU.

LIC, mm...thanks for the info on the AVG..i have norton installed currently and i went to a couple of sites that mm posted, but i have one problem...in those sites right before i was about to download it stated something along the lines of  "even tho some programs are helpful for your computer, some files can damage your pc. if you trust the site proceed" i was gonna download until i saw that.

when those sites state that, is it safe to still download the AVG antivirus program? i don\'t want to download it then at the same time download a virus with it...

If you already have norton then you might as well use that.  As long as your subscription is active and you can download new virus definitions.  Then go with AVG when your sub is up.

AVG is safe to download and install.  The box you are seeing is part of service pack 2 with windows xp.  And make sure you download the free version, not the trial version.

Click on "Get AVG Free", then on the next page scroll down and click avg70free_308a468.exe @ the bottom.

Or a music production CPU etc.

Definately for the basic user, which isnt a terrible thing to be.

Send all your crap to your Gmail account. It has over 2 gigs of space and you can send or upload [by sending it to yourself] up to 10 MB of crap at a time. If you don\'t have a Gmail account...PM me your e-mail address and I\'ll send you an invite to join. :)

EDIT: You can also zip all the files that you want to keep and send it to your e-mail via http://www.yousendit.com <---- you can send up to 1 gig this way, and it will only send you a text link to your e-mail to their server hosting the zip file...er whatever. It will store your junk for a week and then it will be erased. So you can just go back home and download all the crappola.

clips,

so you are saying the computer you are using at work have some pics and other data that are important to you, and you want to know if you can transfer those data to your computer at home.  Yeah, the methods you said work such as burned it to a cd if the computer at work have a cd burner.  Or to a floppy.  Please, by all chances, don\'t bother with a floppy disc.  the  #1 reason is the maximum storage is only 1.44 MByte.  Or a little over 1 MB.  That is not a lot of storage there, compare to CD which can store up to 700 MBytes and higher if you want to overburn...  2nd is speed,  floppy disc will take a while to open file if the size is big, like a picture with lots of data...

or just uses EviscerationX method, send all your importants to an email such as Gmail or Hotmail or Yahoo.  Both hotmail and Yahoo have a storage of 250 Mbytes, so not sure if that\'s not enough.  If is not, try GMail.  Then get home, open your email that you send to, and download them all back.  Then, if you want, you can delete those files in your email...
